Hi Everyone,
Time for an introduction! Our little family recently joined the ExPanda ranks after buying our 2012 14.44 from @jdove back in July although I didn’t find this forum until after that. It took us a while to get the van back from the sunshine state to the place to be (in summer), Victoria and we just had our first weekend away.
This is our first van and it is definitely a step up from the tent, it feels so luxurious! We got the van complete with all bed ends, annex, awning fly’s etc. and spent a bit of time on the first trip working it all out. It’s now a process of working through our to-do/buy lists and figuring out caravaning in general and what all that cupboard space is for, the tent had much less storage, but I’m sure we’ll fill it.
Thanks to everyone involved for making this forum a great place, not just full of advice on such a wide range of (mostly) relevant topics J but also friendly. I’ve certainly got a few ideas for some mods to suit our mainly bush-based camping requirements which I’ll share as they come along and no doubt post questions as well, although I’m sometimes tardy with responses! (sorry).
Have a great night.
Adrian.
